About Bolinger, LA Suboxone Doctors

Suboxone is a FDA-approved medication that is used to help treat individuals in Bolinger, LA who are struggling with addiction to heroin, fentanyl, or any other opioid drug. Suboxone is a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone: a partial opioid agonist that alleviates withdrawal symptoms and desires to use without producing the same high, and a opioid agonist that causes withdrawal symptoms if Suboxone is injected directly into the bloodstream. This medication assisted treatment (MAT) option is only accessible through Suboxone doctors in Bolinger, LA who are specially qualified to prescribe Suboxone to patients addicted to opioids and are seeking help. To minimize the likelihood of abuse, Suboxone doctors may require that patients come and take their dose at their office at the beginning.

Methadone was previously the most frequently used pharmaceutical treatment used for the treatment of opioid addictions, with the caveat that it could only be prescribed via a clinic licensed for methadone treatment. This limited access to medically managed treatment for opiate addiction. The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 made it possible for individual physicians to be able to apply for a waiver, opening the door for individual doctors to prescribe Suboxone. However, there are still strict regulations these doctors must follow that limit treatment. This includes the number of patients they are able to treat for addiction to painkillers and other opiates.
